The school worries more about getting scores up than actually teaching kids. They have my daughter working beyond her grade level so they can secure funding but are giving her F’s instead of helping when she asks for help. Upon her asking for help they send the work home and put a note to the parents to teach them at home since they aren’t “paying attention at school”. My daughter cried and asked why she can’t learn like certain kids in her class (she named a few) and also asks if she can get picked up before math class so the teacher doesn’t give her another F. My child is in kindergarten might I add. She also came home with her pants wet one day because she “was nervous to ask for a potty break” and then scared to tell the teacher she had an accident … my heart shatters that a 5 year old would feel like this at school. She has also had to put her head down and gotten her assignments taken away and made to stand outside in 40/45 degree weather while watching other kids play because she had a hard time focusing. So instead of letting a 5 year get any jitters etc… out of their system they get told to sit still and punished in front of the entire kindergarten class, that’s embarrassing for a child ! There were 2-3 other kids standing outside on the fence as well according to my child. Shame on them. I also withdrew my child after all of this mess in just over 2 months of being in school.
